Why use portfolio or SPAN margin?

Most people think that portfolio margin (PM) or SPAN margin is just used by traders who want to get significant leverage, and therefore need to be comfortable taking larger risks.

There certainly is leverage with portfolio or SPAN margin, but what most people don’t realize is that, if used properly, you can use PM or SPAN margin in order to construct risk profiles which are much safer than what you could construct with RegT margin. There are even certain trade types which are completely not viable at all with RegT margin, and can only be done with PM or SPAN margin.

This course will teach you how PM and SPAN works, how to construct, and how to manage trades which are specific to PM and SPAN.

We primarily focus on creating trades which have much more safety than RegT trades, such that even in the event of a black swan your overall portfolio is protected.

Advanced options analysis spreadsheets

Spread and option chain analysis

You’ll get access to advanced spreadsheets which allow you to get detailed information on various spreads (naked options, verticals, broken wing butterflies, black swan hedges, etc). These spreadsheets can be leveraged in order to try to find extra edge in a position prior to entry (eg seeing that the spread right next to the one you plan to purchase might be available a bit “cheap”), or to help you track your existing positions such that you can see both 1st order and 2nd order greeks.

While doing an option chain deep dive can be potentially useful, note that there is absolutely no need to use these spreadsheets for either setup or management of your trades. We have all of our trade plans fully documented, and entry and management is based on traditional things such as greeks, the dollar value of certain strikes, or expected moves. You can therefore fully trade all of our setups without ever opening any of these spreadsheets.

Position analysis

You’ll also have access to a spreadsheet where you enter your entire (multi-leg) position, and you will then get a full analysis of the 1st and 2nd order greeks for each strike as well as the roll-up greek values for the entire position.

You’ll also be able to display either a 2D or 3D surface graph of any 1st or 2nd order greek of your choosing.

This will give you a level of visibility which is not currently available in any retail trading platform.
